Petra's face flashed to Hali, and for half an instant her lingering smile looked completely feral. Ti'Jan didn't know what manner of being the sea witch was, but he was certain she wasn't Kivren. If there were others like her he had never seen them, nor heard of them... and he didn't truly want...

Ti'Jan had rolled his eyes and thrown the slug into his mouth when Hali teased him, and crossed his arms while he floated within her swirl of colors. Yet as time wore on he grew more and more anxious. Ana, it seemed, was indeed being difficult. "So how about that 'alternate' payment?" "The...

Ti'Jan didn't even try to stop Andromeda from fleeing. She didn't deserve to get pulled into all of this, anyway. Maybe that was why he clung so close to Hali's friendship. She was already involved and had proven she didn't care about the consequences of being the companion of a misbehaved...

Ti'Jan didn't like where this was going at all. Actually, "going" was generous. They had arrived. Arrived at a terrible and rather volatile destination for such a small cave. He was beginning to think enduring a single day of embarrassment and boring title ceremonies would have been a better use...

Ti'Jan rubbed his neck sheepishly. "It's, uh... my birthday." It sounded so stupid saying it out loud. "But, more than that!" he tried to recover. "It's a big one. Where they parade me about like an idiot and stick a stupid crown on me..." This wasn't working, he just sounded more and more...

"Not like that, we can't." He caught Hali's eye and his smile dropped from devious to polite. She tended to get... feisty... when he heaped too much attention on newbies. Maybe they could adventure through the kelp forests after this. After he'd dealt with today's consequences. He turned back...

Ti'Jan grit his teeth as the situation escalated. An inversed shower of tiny bubbles cascaded to the cavern's ceiling as the guards pounded against the door, and her clutched at his silvery hair, glancing from side to side. They wouldn't hurt him, but his friends were another story. Hali had...

Petra‘s expression softened, and a smile that might almost have been genuine crossed her lips. “That will do.” At once she brought a jar of thick salve to her humanoid hands and gently reached to apply it to Ana’s wounds. It would be cooling to the touch, and Petra’s fingers were quite a bit...

Ti'Jan took his chance to swim back to Hali, "Take it easy, Hal, she's new here. And we didn't exactly give her the best welcome, eh?" He tried to put on a smile, but it was rendered awkward and lopsided given the weird situation. This was not the time to be hot-headed, not while indebted to...

Ti'Jan was not a stranger to these sorts of tense standoffs. They tended to happen when one frequented seedy areas of town while having rich parents. He hadn't been held for ranson yet (not technically, as he would always remind Hali that the letter never actually reached his mother), but he'd...

Ti'Jan again tried to say something, but Petra's grip tensed once more and forced the air from his petulant lungs. It would appear, per usual, that he was not in control of the situation. As much as he hated to admit it, Petra's medicine was working. He was no longer bleeding and the wounds did...

Petra’s moved through the cluttered cavern with practiced ease. Despite her many twisting arms she didn’t knock a thing out of place, and Ti’Jan was certain she had memorized exactly where everything was. She didn’t need to look behind herself as her arms gathered various ingredients and...

”I’m alright,” he brushed off Hali’s concern, though blood was still wafting into the current from his open cuts and scrapes. ”Nothing deep. Are you ok? And... you?” His face showed rare sincerity in his concern for his lifelong friend, and more than a little guilt as he checked on Ana. Quite an...

Ti’Jan darted into the tunnel too quickly to heed Hali’s warning. It was cramped, and the water was warm, and as he saw the lights open one after the other, he slowly came to realize where he had led them. ”Oh, f-” The eels drowned out his words in a swarm of biting teeth and slicing fins...
